Is Albuquerque safe for solo female travelers?

Born and raised here but shit you cant let your guard down. I think there is a lot of character in this town and new mexicans are generally really friendly but there is also a huge homeless population and the cartel definitely runs through here. Sometimes when I go out alone at night, men will follow me around pretending not to or will just straight up ask me if i am by myself and it does make me feel unsafe. I have also met a lot of really awesome people here and 95% of the time I don't have to worry about anything so its liveable and travel-able, just be aware of your surroundings (as always🤍)

Albuquerque stays true to its ‘Breaking Bad reputation’ its known for its high crime rate and violent activity. However I will mention it has so so much culture. While majority of people you meet there are very kind it’d definitely be a good Idea to keep your guard up just a little higher.

ABQ is like any other city, there are bad parts, and good parts. If you need recommendations for places let me know. Tourist spots are great! And It’s a lot of fun. We have a homeless problem and honestly that’s the only hard part. Being a women, I recommend NEVER being alone at night. Quite literally ever. If you’re going to a store, you’re good, a restaurant? Beautiful. Walking around down town? No. Hoping bars by yourself? Never. If you need things to do, DM me!

Albuquerque gets a bad rap, there are places that are very dangerous, but there are also so many incredibly safe places. Basically just don’t go below I40 unless you’re in Nob Hill or old town area and you’re fine

Honestly Albuquerque isn’t really a safe place, especially while driving. Be really careful when on central because there’s a lot of homeless and crime there. Police here in my experience are lazy and won’t do much to help.
